Latest from APM Reports on Mesabi Academy

The parent company that owns Mesabi Academy - the juvenile treatment facility on the Iron Range that has been the subject of recent reporting by APM Reports - has decided to close the location. MPR News host Tom Weber talks with Curtis Gilbert and Tom Scheck from APM Reports about their investigative work around Mesabi and the results, which include St. Louis county officials reopening an investigation into an allegation of sexual abuse at the facility. UCLA professor of social welfare, Laura Abrams, discusses whether the problems at Mesabi Academy are felt nationwide, or if the situation is anomalous.
